=46rom what I remember from the old discussion, I guess we have two things =
to=20
consider here:

	whether dbus-launch should save bus information for autolaunch
	whether dbus-launch should try to reuse autolaunch information

My guess is that we should default to both behaviours. We can then add flag=
s=20
to turn them off. It can even be the same flag.

That is, in most cases a bus being launched wants to be reused and you want=
 to=20
reuse a bus if there already is one. If you want to launch a new, private=20
bus, you probably don't want it reused for other purposes.

A simple way of achieving that is to change the triad:
	user - machine ID - X11 display
to a four-way tuple:
	user - machine ID - X11 display - cookie

where the cookie is by default empty. If you *really* need a new, private b=
us=20
for your purposes, you can enable that cookie (via environment variable) an=
d=20
benefit from autolaunching.

Then again, that sounds overly complicated...
